new draft constitution based on islamic law gets the seal of approval from egypt's muslim lawmakers with the opposition calling for mass protests to boycott the charter. palestinian trial of an israeli diplomatic defeat as the u.n. overwhelmingly voted to recognize palestinian statehood by upgrading its status in the organization. of the world's most famous whistleblower join the sounds promises more astonishing we can leaks revelations as he speaks exclusively to r.t. others with or an embassy in london.

this is r.t. coming to you live from moscow i'm marina joshing now egypt islam has dominated constitutional sam lee has passed and new draft constitution opposition leaders are already calling for mass protests against the charter that's based on sharia law saying it cracks down on freedom well for more on this we can now go live to journalist truth is in cairo well balwinder are people so angry about this draft constitution. the problem really stems from the constituent assembly itself many of the liberal leftists and church representatives actually walked up to the constituent assembly to what they said was bullying from the islamist factions that dominated the constitution writing body as you said in the lead to this that one of the key issues is that is sharia law which many say the articles about sharia law leave open to interpretation to a very ultra orthodox interpretation and in addition the rights groups are saying that some articles are really impinging on human rights for example the practice of

military trials of civilians which is condemned on the international law is actually included in the constitution which has been a point of contention for revolutionaries since january two thousand and eleven this document will go to president morsi today and we expect to see it go to referee referendum book on the referendum in the next few weeks. point zero egypt's been shaken by her we have violent unrest as are any and inside. i don't think so today opposition forces have claimed four million man marches across egypt and also they are continuing that into her but we really will see probably more escalating violence we've seen on the streets recently because of this is what they called a power grab by president morsi was referring to is a very controversial constitution that duration we awarded himself sweeping power as rival protest groups are pro and anti more tea and more see what's his comments on egypt streets really is that she was out of the fair amount of violence in the

last week including actually least one that she really people are gearing up for more protests specially as we now have this draft constitution that people rightly regard as illegitimate. all right thanks very much indeed for the sub daytimes bell truth from cairo. well was the growing unrest in egypt as well as protest in libya and tunisia mannie analysts are now questioning just how much change the arab spring has brought to these countries as. she counts found out there are fears that instead of a better and brighter future these nations may actually be sliding towards a grim or fate. less than two years after the gyptian people ousted hosni mubarak mohamed morsi granted himself even more power than his predecessor head to the special to create president morsi make sure that no court can challenge his decisions. that the president's power grab brought hundreds of thousands of

egyptians onto the street with a shared says that their aspirations were being betrayed. unfortunately were replaced the corrupt regime of mubarak with a regime that is more strict and violent the draft version of egypt's new constitution inserts new islamic references into the country's system of government and keeps in place an article defining the principles of shari'a as the main source of legislation when they're not in power there are moderates. in the united states and washington the various islamic organizations that dominate in the us but when they come into power they put a lot of grip on power it is socially establish an islamic dictatorship the sense of betrayal and disappointment has not left this week so tunisia the first country to witness an arab spring uprising unemployment there skyrocketed in the wake of the revolution and is now at eighteen percent. our demands are the same as those that have been made during the revolution we want jobs development in the region

and the equitable sharing of wealth we also demand the dismissal of the governor who has done nothing for this region but it's comprised the development here as the arab spring unfolded less than two years ago the obama administration jumped on the bandwagon of the revolutions hoping to forge better alliances with the new leaders . in revia the us prompted the change with airstrikes in arms supplies were seen policymakers here in washington trying very hard to present the arab spring as a success story up until september washington had. the revolution in libya check as a foreign policy victory for president obama after all the u.s. provided most of the firepower which led to the capture and the killing of moammar gadhafi only after the tragic attack on the u.s. consulate in benghazi and the murder of the american ambassador there did lead to a comeback into a spotlight and the chaos that we see there now flies in the face of that success story narrative protests frequently disrupt operations at the main oil refinery in western libya while the new government in libya has little or no control over the

numerous militia groups the civil war has left the country shredded to pieces with radical islam is taking advantage of the chaos so many in the post-revolutionary north african countries despair and violence have replaced the hopes of the arab spring in washington i'm going to check out. now as the world media speculates on the songes health problems the whistleblower himself is still focused on his mission. that something had to his cable kates could ever happen again play next year was the time next year earlier over a much. more classified leaks are have from join us on it and we've been leaks that's what the world's top whistleblower tells r.d.s. he continues to hide out and they quit your embassy and london plus. this is all you we have already given me so much we should start to feel. it's a lot of germans are becoming increasingly angry and digging grease out of its debt

hole and this is the country's m.p.'s both foreign aid package for the struggling state. palestine as one long awaited state recognition at the un after more than two thirds of member states voted in favor of grading its status the decision came as a blow to israel and the u.s. so harshly opposed to move calling it's counterproductive right after the historic vote my colleague sean thomas spoke to our correspondents in new york and television as well as an activist in gaza. one hundred thirty eight countries including russia voted in support of the draft resolution that now elevates palestine status to non member observer state palestine will be able to join the international criminal court this would allow palestine to press for investigations into israel's practices in the occupied territories it would also be able to join the un agencies forty one countries abstained from voting on the resolution and

nine countries voted no that includes the u.s. clearly this changes the dynamic very much so within the un general assembly while palestine is not considered and does not have all full membership at the united nations having this member of server status is extremely symbolic and does show at the end of the day where the international community does stand on this issue though right now harry you are in gaza as we speak what's the mood there on the ground at the moment and do you think that this good will actually change anything on the ground. gazans obscene jubilant about this result. was nothing that i wasn't i mean this here in gaza. city was. particularly interested by the way this will change anything on the ground in

gaza. but in the west bank with the illegal settlements. project innocent citizen palestinians see it ok i am hoping that the army who were drawn on that will be rolled back as a result of these increased illegal clouds that will be affected by the state. of things now paula how has the israel taken the news of this vote so far. well windies radio best suited to the united nations one pose a. his address to the united nations general assembly he was essentially with the same team what has been and continues to be the israeli point of view he said that the palestinian leadership made a mistake in making this but in the first place he said that the resolution was one sided and it did not in any way it grace the security concerns and that the state of israel has now we have heard already cold calls for sanctions we certainly have heard earlier this week from being israeli foreign minister avigdor lieberman who

says that he needs to be an extreme reaction to the palestinians if indeed they go ahead with this food so it means in the recent days and in the recent now was there has been toned down israeli reaction so if we as they sensed that the bug was going to go the direction of the palestinians we know also that the israelis have been scared of making any kind of statements that could be used against him in the future but at the moment in his role the reaction was muted it was very much expected that the book would go in this direction. well following the vote both israel and the u.s. tried to downplay its significance washington's amboy to the u.n. susan rice the palestinian hopes are doomed to failure as recognition by the u.n. won't change anything on the ground today's grand pronouncements will soon fade and the palestinian people will wake up tomorrow and find that little about their lives has changed today's vote should not be misconstrued by any as

constituting eligibility for u.n. membership it does not this resolution does not establish that. there is a state. ramsey baroud added to her and palestine chronicle dot com says washington's middle east rhetoric is outdated and the un vote shows the u.s. risks possible isolation because of its unflinching support for israel. what hillary clinton has actually said can only be understood within the old context the us is an evil to get out of the rot it's political rot of many years partly the united states its is stuck in its own foreign policy of all it is incapable of adapting to a new middle east to the so-called arab spring to the new realities that are emerging from the region it is still trying to side with the israeli lobby is trying to back israel right or wrong along with you either that or kind of

basically exist within within the american political sphere it's embarrassing day for american foreign policy today yet they persist and they refuse to depart and leave that all started school politics today was this this amazing historic chance for the rest of the international community to challenge the u.s. and israel and their addicted hearts and to say in one or more years voice that we do support in principle the establishment of it had a steady and state now this story vote and prospects for peace are also the topics up for fierce debate and the latest edition of crosstalk here's a taste of what's coming up for you later today. that's not the way to run an issue of a people who want to have a loophole and yet people want to have a homeland it's not enough to have declaration you have to build your nation towards that i do for romney is completely lucidity of mind is clearly not

suffering from outside but i'm not sure why he's the problem is the power stimulus won't negotiate really throughout the year record the one conclusion you reach the out there and the conclusion is nothing happened it's like the children song the wheels on the bus go round and round and the reason nothing. happened is because the palestinian side said let's apply international law and resolve the conflict and the israeli side said we reject international law we're going to decide this resolution the conflict on the terms that suit us.

a lovely quiet morning a family jet li sleeps in district heights maryland when fifty armed f.b.i. agents stormed the house and guns drawn despite the family pleading that they were unarmed the law enforcement agents opened fire on a weaponless teenager my asian huli thankfully sholay suffered minor flesh wounds but the key issue is that it remains unknown as to why the house was stormed so here in america for no reason guys in black uniform storm someone's house oh loads of rounds and left with no justification or explanation yes the family still doesn't know why this happened the f.b.i. is remaining silent you know i understand that there are some very bad individuals out there doing some very bad stuff at home but if you don't even really know whose house you're storming or why you're storming it then maybe you should lay off the siege for a while you know what take a few minutes to think it over have a cup of coffee and maybe even do a little google search about the fourth amendment but that's just my opinion.

really wants to talk about at the moment and we did talk about that we talked about how he sees this increase in state surveillance is hugely damaging for the entire fabric of society how companies and governments can minute the internet for data that is placed there willingly but unwittingly boy citizens all over the world let's just listen into a little bit of what he said about that we all think of. some kind of poetic realm where we can throw ideas and communication with writers and books and there exist somewhere out there actually there exists. who are physically controls that controls the room of our ideas and communications and whoever is able to sit on those communications channels can intercept entire nations. joining us on it has been cooped up in the embassy behind me for more than five months now and you may have heard reports in the media in the last couple of days that he's developed

a lung condition but in fact his people are saying that there is no lung condition although he does have quite a pervasive cough actually looks pretty pale quite thin but he seems to be in high spirits but the possibility the specter of a serious illness has raised questions about what the government of this country would do if he was ill would they allow medical help to go into the embassy would if he had to get out to go to hospital would they use that as an excuse to arrest him he at this current moment doesn't want to talk about his personal situation he's much more interested in talking about the book that he's just read. off the back of the program that he made but nevertheless. about his general held up when i asked him whether they could ever be as bleak as significant as papal gate of which we've of course just seen the two year anniversary he said that we should watch this space do you think that something has lowered just cable kate could ever happen again and that would have a similar impact. play next year. what's the time next year

on friday isn't just a vote on greek financial aid it's also been seen very much as a test of on global calls of the chancellor the opposition parties in the parliament hopes that she's going to have to prove to the that this latest round of financial aid is in germany's best interests of the vote for it what this latest package essentially means is that for twenty thirteen germany is set to lose around seven hundred and thirty million euros jus to implementing these latest measures then. this is an image that is enough because we don't see this money ever again. at some point it should be stopped working this high time they were capable of helping themselves. but some day we could also. speck north this is all used we've already given the so much money and they should start. the start is my

opinion and there's nothing more i can say. it does seem after debate took place on thursday that the majority of the the social democrats in the green party will get on board with the angle of a proposed aid package for greece most important for england merkel is making sure they to her own coalition stay on site and stay all message in a test vote on this issue that took place earlier in the week we saw ten members of anglo merkel's own party vote against her we're going to see a general election here in germany between september and october of twenty thirty will be looking for. the chancellor and she's going to need the support of her party under the other qualities that make up the coalition so this vote on a person for grace but especially important for angela merkel and her hopes of reelection. actually spitter all of us keeping an eye on the upcoming votes of

one guy is welcome back to break in the set i'm abby martin i want to talk about something huge that just happened marking a monumental shift in palestine struggle for self-determination the south and the palestinians issued a successful bid at the u.n. for international recognition as a nonmember state and all some of you might think that this vote is nothing more than a diplomatic theatre i can assure you that it signifies so much more it signifies palestine's burgeoning strains in the eyes of the international community it means that the more leverage on border talks and negotiations with israel not to mention boosting the country's chance to join the international criminal court which would give them the ability to investigate israeli war crimes and hold their government accountable yet israel and its biggest supporter the us are saying this is. horrible idea why well they said it was valid violate palestinians commitment to

resolve issues through negotiations interesting because it seems to me that actually giving palestinians some kind of level playing field and giving them a voice would encourage them to come to the table because here's the bottom line the status quo was not acceptable and this bit represents the first step in the change needed to move forward so join me and let's break that set. up that were. never seen anything like. if you're wondering where i've been the last few days my producer and i just got back from haiti or went on a chartered plane with former u.s. president jimmy carter to help build houses for habitat for humanity now tomorrow i'm going to bring you all of our exclusive reporting from the country but first i want to talk about my personal experience with the former president of the united states.
